Download of the Day: PureText

On Friday, BotHack posted an MS Office tip for pasting unformatted text. PureText: A Windows utility that lets you paste unformatted text into any open window in any program.

I downloaded a copy, installed it and and found it worked exactly as advertised. Now, when I want to paste unformatted text, I use Windows+V instead of Ctrl+V. That’s a lot quicker than the four clicks needed to “Edit”, “Paste Special”, “Unformatted Text”, “OK”.

PureText, which sits in my Windows tray, is fully customizable. If you don’t like the default (Windows+D) shortcut, you can easily change it to something more memorable. Windows, Free.
